The Modern Era: From Billionaire Heirs to Pop-Punk Collaborators
After her second divorce, Avril Lavigne's dating life continued to capture headlines, moving from reality TV stars to a new generation of musicians, all while maintaining her signature punk edge.
Brody Jenner (2010–2012)
Avril's first major relationship after her divorce from Deryck Whibley was with reality TV personality Brody Jenner, known for his appearances on *The Hills* and *Keeping Up with the Kardashians*. The couple dated for two years and were often seen together, even getting matching tattoos. Their split was amicable, marking a transition period in the singer's personal life before her second marriage.
Phillip Sarofim (2018–2019)
In a departure from her usual musician partners, Avril was linked to Texas-based billionaire heir Phillip Sarofim. The couple were seen together in 2018 and 2019, but their relationship was kept relatively low-key, demonstrating a brief pivot away from the intense media scrutiny of dating a fellow rock star.
Mod Sun (2021–2023) – The Engagement That Ended
Avril's return to the pop-punk scene with her album *Love Sux* coincided with her romance with musician Mod Sun (Derek Smith). Their relationship began in 2021 after collaborating on music. Mod Sun proposed to Avril in Paris in March 2022 in a highly romantic gesture.
The engagement was short-lived, however, as the couple called it quits in February 2023. The abrupt end to their engagement became major news, as they had been a highly visible and seemingly inseparable couple in the new wave of pop-punk revival.
Tyga (2023) – The Short-Lived Rap Romance
Immediately following her split from Mod Sun, Avril was seen with rapper Tyga (Micheal Ray Stevenson). Their relationship quickly became public, with the two spotted together at fashion week events and various high-profile parties.
The rap and rock pairing was a surprising shift for the Canadian icon, but the romance was brief, reportedly ending in the latter half of 2023. This short-lived relationship closed the chapter on her most recent confirmed public dating period.
Avril Lavigne's Current Relationship Status in Late 2025
So, who is the Sk8er Boi singer dating now? As of December 2025, Avril Lavigne is officially not in a confirmed public relationship. Following the intense media coverage of her splits from Mod Sun and Tyga, the artist has chosen to keep her personal life extremely private, focusing instead on her music career and her highly successful festival appearances.
The most compelling narrative in her love life isn't a new boyfriend, but the mature, enduring bonds she shares with her ex-husbands. Her recent on-stage reunion with Deryck Whibley is a testament to the unique way she navigates relationships in the public eye.
While rumors about a "new romance" or a rekindling with an ex often surface, Avril has remained tight-lipped. The pop-punk princess has made it clear that her focus is on her artistry, her fans, and maintaining a positive, professional rapport with the men who have been part of her journey. She continues to prove that in the world of celebrity, a supportive, co-creative relationship with an ex can be just as powerful and newsworthy as a fresh romance.
Fans eager for an update on who she is dating next will have to wait, but for now, the story of Avril Lavigne's love life is less about finding "The One" and more about how she keeps her past relationships awesome, complicated, and wonderfully collaborative.
